/**
 * \brief BONDI filesystem API.
 *
 * The BONDI filesystem API provides access to the filesystem of a device. The
 * filesystem is abstractly represented as a collection of disjoint filesystem
 * root locations each corresponding to some specific location in the device
 * filesystem.  The filesystem API exposes the hierarchies below these root
 * locations as a single virtual filesystem but provides no access to other
 * parts of the device filesystem.
 *
 * The roots that are exposed are determined by the platform also by the
 * context in which the filesystem API is invoked.
 *
 * Each root has a string name. Each file or directory within the virtual
 * filesystem is addressed using a fully-qualified path of the form:
 * <em>&lt;root name&gt;/&lt;path&gt;</em> where <em>&lt;rootname&gt;</em> is
 * the name of the root and <em>&lt;path&gt;</em> is the path to the file or
 * directory relative to that root.
 * 
 * The list of the supported root locations can be retrieved by calling
 * filesystem.getRootLocations().
 *
 * The default location for a specific type of file, if one exists, can be
 * obtained by calling the filesystem.getDefaultLocation(...) method. A set of
 * platform-independent symbolic names for media types is defined. The default
 * location for a given file type may itself be a root, or some subdirectory of
 * a root. Although the set of roots available on a device is
 * platform-dependent, the getDefaultLocation(...) functionality can be used to
 * ensure that web applications can be written in a platform-independent way.
 *
 * In order to access specific locations which are prefixed with a value
 * retrieved by filesystem.getDefaultLocation or some root location returned by
 * filesystem.getRootLocations a File handle must be retrieved using the
 * filesystem.resolve call.
 *
 * A File handle represents either a file or a directory. If it is a file the
 * isFile attribute will be <em>true</em>, otherwise the isDirectory attribute
 * will be <em>true</em>. A file can be opened for reading and writing, using a
 * FileStream handle. A directory can be used to list its contents which is a
 * list of files and sub-directories. There is a resolve method on directories
 * as well in order to resolve files or sub-directories more conveniently than
 * processing directory listings.
 *
 * The "/" character is used as the (path) component separator.
 * The use of "." or ".." in location components is not required to be
 * supported.
 *
 * All path characters need to be <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2279.txt">UTF-8</a> encoded.
